      Pros

      People - they are the best! Global and supportive environment, ideal environment to grow and assume various responsibilities. Well vocalized vision that somehow really connects the people to do more for their customers.

      Cons

      Positions are sometimes too narrow and you can caught yourself "isolated" in a specific area only and accordingly you tend to sense the repetition and routine.
